Re: [Libvisual-devel] Libvisual crashing with no plugins

[Dennis S. <sy...@yo...>]

Have you done visual_init (&argc, &argv), lists always 
get created in visual_init :)

You can pass NULL, NULL at visual_init.

if visual_init returns < 0 than there is a serious error.

Try this first, if there is still a problem report back :)

Cheers,
Dennis
